ISLAMABAD: Federal Minister for Planning and Development, Asad Umer on Tuesday said that the incumbent government is extending full support to Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Sindh regarding corona vaccine.

The leaders of Pakistan Peoples Party had failed to ensure the availability of vaccine in their respective areas of Sindh, he said in an interview with a private television channel. He further stated that people are facing trouble in different hospitals due to unavailability of corona vaccine. The PPP and PML-N leaders who ruled the country for long time could not succeed in fulfilling the basic needs of people, he lamented.
